Re: Hair advice
You could wear a sheitel (wig) like married jewish women... you could have a new hairstyle everyday! :)
Colourwise, Chanda is on the money.... cut-wise i think you should keep the layering to a minimum, but keep them long-ish; too short a layer will make your hair look like a poofy christmas tree.
Sweeping side fringe also? Very low maintenance compared to full blunt bangs...
